This hike with extraordinary views connects two of Madeira Island's highest peaks, Pico Ruivo (1862 m) and Pico do Arieiro (1818 m), crossing the Central Mountain Massif area.

Between the ascents and descents along the trail, there is a steep climb up hundreds of steps carved into the rock when reaching Pico Ruivo, as well as a rather laborious descent. This is an excellent trail for nature lovers and those seeking physical challenges.

I booked the tour expecting to visit both Peaks as advertised. When the guide had everyone on board he informed us that we would only be able to visit one peak, as there had been a fire 2 years before so we were unable to use the trail. He said the consolation would be going to the beach for a swim at another town and climbing a hill overlooking the airport. We were all very disappointed expecting a full day hiking at the high peaks of Maderia. The 8 hour tour ended 6.5 hours I feel Ripped Off!!

Die Führung hat (noch nicht) stattgefunden. Wegen dem schlechten Wetter wurde als neuer Termin Donnerstag, der 15.5. ins Auge gefasst. Allerdings soll dieser Tag zwei Tage voraus bestätigt werden. Sollte die Wanderung an dem Tag nicht stattfinden, erwarte ich eine Rückzahlung des Kaufpreises
